If you don't have any errors, it's really positive, meaning XSI works fine for you ! I'm at work currently but I have my laptop, I'll update my Linux Distros, see if XSI works better and maybe install Open Suse 11, I downloaded a Live CD.

Ok After a few hours spent installing back an forth XSI, and with the help of Yuri, I finally managed to have a "kind of" running again XSI 7.5 and started debugging the Template.I found that the JScript

undefined

is not working as intended under Linux and producing an error, so I replaced it by

hello everyone! First of all, a big thanks goes to everyone involved in developing sIBL, it makes life a lot easier.

I just installed sIBL for the first time on my home system (I only switched to XSI 7 recently and I was looking forward to trying it). The installation was completed successfully and, on a first glance, sIBL appears to be working fine (as far as I can tell scripts are output and executed properly) but then something goes wrong.

While in the preview visualization of FG the brightness of the image looks the way it's supposed to, the actual render looks a lot darker than it should (that actually includes the background image).

I tried several scenes with several sIBL files, I loaded an empty scene and executed the script and then rendered it out, I also tried rendering a scene before executing the script and then after executing it and the result was always the same. Everything looks darker than it's supposed to. If I import the sun and apply the env hdri as an environment in an empty scene rather than executing the script the brightness looks right.

I'm a little puzzled since I installed sIBL on a friend's system a couple of days ago and it works fine on the same version of XSI :S

Hi Kel, saw your recompiled version for 7.5. Will have a go, haven't had much time lately to test stuff

Hi Rork o/

Good Call with the pass, I'll check that tomorrow.I'm currently working on some new features for sIBL_GUI, a GPS map has been added, and next versions should be able to get Templates and Help from an Online Repository

I checked the behavior with the Passes, and it seems to be correct. Notice that the Template will not connect the Raytype by default on the Passes, you need to enable the "Pass Selection Dialog" in the "Additional Attributes".
